Trivial generators for nontrivial fibres

Linus Carlsson

Abstract: Pseudoconvex domains are exhausted in such a way that we keep a part of the boundary fixed in all the domains of the exhaustion. This is used to solve a problem concerning whether the generators for the ideal of either the holomorphic functions continuous up to the boundary or the bounded holomorphic functions, vanishing at a point in $\mathbb {C}^{n}$ where the fibre is nontrivial, has to exceed $n$. This is shown not to be the case.
